Warm Apple And Goat Cheese Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar or 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (I like to use balsamic vinegar)
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
3 Belgian endive, cored and separated into leaves
1 bunch watercress or 1 bunch spinach, washed
1 granny smith apple, sliced
4 ounces mild goat cheese (small log)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (I like to toast them)

Preparation

Using a glass jar with a tight lid, combine the vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper, and shake well to blend.
Add the oil and parsley and shake.
On 4 plates, arrange the endive leaves like spokes around each plate.
Arrange the watercress or spinach in the center.
Preheat the broiler, and arrange the sliced apples slightly overlapping in 4 fan shapes, place in broiler pan.
Cut the cheese into 4 slices and top each apple fan with slices of cheese.
Broil until golden for approximately 5 minutes.
Using a spatula, carefully place the apple slices and cheese on top of the endive.
Drizzle the dressing over the salads and sprinkle with walnuts.
Enjoy!
